Low and High Visual Intensities
This picture has very low visual intensity. The colors are all around the same tone with grayscale and there is not very much to look at. The mother and baby are in the center of the frame and have a lot of space surrounding them. We can see the line of the wall/floor and your eye is drawn there, but the image as a whole is very calm and not “intense” although many of the visual componants are visible.
This picture has very high visual intensity. The lines of each building and the skyline can draw your eyes everywhere. The color is very intense in this picture, as well, when you don’t know whether to look at the blue in the sky or orange in the sky and windows. These colors are opposite on the spectrum so they stand out more against each other. There is a lot of empty space but it is filled by color in the sky. With this picture, you have no idea where to look because the colors and lines will cause you to look in every direction. This makes it so this image has higher visual intensity.
